Krátky popis
These astoundingly clever stories were written when Jane Austen was
between just eleven and eighteen years old, and deserve to be read
and admired alongside her novels.Jack and Alice recounts a raucous
masquerade ball and the gossip it provides for months afterwards,
Alice, who has had a bit too much to drink, becomes infatuated with
the pompous Charles Adams. In The Three Sisters, Mary is determined
to be married before her sisters are, even if it means marrying a
man she absolutely cannot stand. These stories burst with scandal
and absurdity, featuring dramatic deaths, sudden marriage
proposals, a prison break, a poisoning, robbery, a shipwreck, and
secret affairs.Austen’s wicked sense of humour is fully unleashed
here, as she brilliantly skewers romantic, societal and narrative
conventions. Her teenage stories are the works of a true
genius.This series of pocket-sized paperbacks celebrates the art of
the short story and marks Macmillan Collector's Library's 10th
anniversary. Each contains a curated selection of short stories
from a literary giant: Katherine Mansfield, Arthur Conan Doyle,
Edgar Allen Poe, Oscar Wilde, Jane Austen, James Joyce, Virginia
Woolf, Alice Dunbar Nelson, F. Scott Fitzgerald and Rabindranath
Tagore.
